Scottish PLC trials - reports of success

How premature this news is, we cannot be sure, but www.ispreview.co.uk are reporting that SSE
Telecom's trial of broadband over powerlines in Scotland has been a success according to early reports.

The first customers were publically announced in July 2003, which
makes for a relatively short trial of a technology that is contentious. Though this may mean the focus will now be more on the Winchester trial, which has previously being touted as a commercial
trial to see how the service can compete in areas that already have broadband in the guise of ADSL.
